Lily Orchard and Pokemon: Gen 4

Yay, we get to hear Lily bitch more from now on.

"Gen 4 runs like shit because the game is trying to process 3D graphics all the time, like with battle transitions, health bars and movement!"

Then how the fuck do you explain Platinum, which ended up fixing all these issues then?

"Also I'm modding the game to remove the FPS cap and give myself a Ralts as the starter-"

W-w-wait, what?!

Why the fuck are you modding the games...in a retrospective all about looking back at the games as they hold up? Your complaints and footage WON'T line up, thus weakening your arguments!

Also, I don't give a fuck about how much you like Gardevoir. Ralts doesn't get an attacking move until Level 6. Starters start at Level 5. And Ralts is INTENTIONALLY weak to compensate for how strong it is fully evolved. Modding in a Ralts WILL affect your gameplay because the games aren't built for that.

For fuck's sake- USE A DIFFERENT TEAM!

"I encourage Barry to try and jump over the grass because I wanna see him get mauled by a Bidoof-"

Wait a minute. Was-was that fucking Peanut Butter from Pokemon Rusty?

...Oh great, Lily Orchard is probably taking her takes from Dorkly. That explains a lot.

"Well Ralts doesn't get an attacking move so I 'threw the match-'"

Sounding pretty salty there, Lily. Maybe you should try diversifying your teams and actually ENGAGE with the Pokemon by using a damn starter.

"I'm getting stopped all this time like a small child in a brony conve-"

I will call Taka in here to maul you, Lily. You were kicked out, deal with it.

"Uh oh! My Ralts is worse than a Magikarp! Whoopsie!"

Keep this in mind. It will be important later.

"Oh no! It takes a whole minute and ten seconds for me to get through an encounter with Team Galactic! TOO LONG!"

Speaking as someone who has played every Gen of Pokemon...as well as playing a few games with Pokemon's older, edgy brother SMT- You are making mountains out of mole hills Lily.

Games, especially RPGs given how they don't tend to be very interactive games, tell stories to stimulate the player's brain. This requires time, Lily. I know that you like being lulled into a silent stupor as evidenced by your love of Team Aqua/Magma and later Lysandre (No I am not joking) but most ACTUAL people like having some kind of engagement with the game. Pokemon, even at it's most verbose, is fucking SMALL POTATOES compared to your usual JRPG.

I brought up SMT for a reason Lily- that series compensates for having a less engaging battle system than Pokemon's by having a more robust story. If you played any SMT, even one like Nocturne- your brain would likely shut down.

JRPGs like having stories. You signed up for this with Pokemon. Now judge it accordingly.

"People gas up Cyrus as one of the best villains-!"

No they don't. They gas TEAM GALACTIC as one of the best villains because they fuck with the fundamental forces of existence, giving them an air of a series threat. I don't agree, I like Cyrus for being the only one with a reason for doing what he's doing. But people usually like him for the stuff OUTSIDE his home game.

"Reading Pokemon stories is just like watching subbed anime: reading the most inane bullshit!"

... Lily, you hate anything anime, don't you?

"Sinnoh ugly because grey and mud and forest gross!"

... 1- Lily, you literally show a grey tiled route being dyed orange in evening light.

2- Yes Lily. Mountainious regions and marshlands have mud and rocks.

And 3- The forest looks dark and damp because that's a fucking FOREST. If you paid attention the BGM in the previous forests, you'd notice that is what the developers intend the forest areas to be like. You basically just said ''the previous three gens completely failed at their jobs!'

*Lily proceeds to have a fake existential nightmare about Pokemon and Youtube*

Cool Lily. Too bad you mention these minor things and not...you know...the strewn path of broken lives you've left in your wake on this planet.

Could have had some kind of respect for you.

"Pokemon games hold your hand like a creepy uncle with a MLP collec-"

@takashi0 get in here! Lily's being an ass about bronies again!

"Oh my god! So many forced tutorials! Why won't they let me skip everything like the Underground tutorial! POKEMON BAD!"

Lily, the reason why the game won't let you skip the Bike is because you NEED it to progress the game and it gives you an improved movement option. It also won't let you skip the Egg tutorial because Pokemon breeding is necessary for getting certain Pokemon or helping you get certain Pokemon (like multiple starters). And this is why you can't skip the catching tutorial: you'd just be throwing Pokeballs at random and failing constantly.

These are necessary aspects of the game. A game for kids who may have never played a Pokemon game before. Deal with it.

"I don't know why I'm here, I just keep ignoring the dialogue."

So you talk about the story being ass...while acknowledging that you aren't paying attention to said story...

Like, I know that Lily is implying she's long since gone through the game and experienced the story, hates it and is now skipping over it but you are now making a retrospective of the games. Now would be a good time to pay attention and possible reconsider your stance.

"HMs are so cool! You can use your Pokemon to transverse the region! People are so dumb for bitching about them. You have 24 moveslots, just set aside some and forget coverage, dumbbnuts!"

So what you're saying is that we should have random required HMs in Pokemon Gyms to challenge them properly? You know, like Chuck's Gym? That you couldn't complete without backtracking?

Or that maybe we should have moves like Cut, Rock Smash, Flash, Whirlpool and Defog (which you basically call useless) be necessary! After all, who cares about player expression? It's just 20.8% of your moveslots!

... This is why you use your BRAIN Lily.

"You need to adapt to roadblocks, you useless clowns!"

Remember this, it will be important later.

"Archie and Maxie were charmingly stupid but Cyrus is completely crazy!"

A- That's intentional with Cyrus and UNINTENTIONAL with your favs.

And B- You outright emphasized that they were gonna blow up a volcano to try and expand water/land for Pokemon. How is THAT not crazy?

"Barry demands yet ANOTHER Battle-"

It's the fourth fucking battle Lily. Just because you cut yourself anytime a rival shows up doesn't make it excessive.

"*another 'cobs bad' joke*-"

Yeah yeah, you want cops gone because your abuse victims keep calling them on you and you have a bad experience with them.

Move on.

"Hey I'm not a cop, it's not unethical if I go on a rampage-"

You REALLY don't know when to keep your mouth shut, do you?

"Cyrus can no be cult leader, HE HAVE NO MOTIVE OR PESONALLITY!"

...

"Fellow members of Team Galactic! Hear me! My name, as I appear to you today, is Cyrus. This world of ours is a crude one. In a word, it is incomplete. It has been, and always will be, a struggle to survive in this world. We humans and Pokémon are likewise incomplete. Because we are all so lacking, we fight, we maim... It is ugly. I hate the incompleteness. That we are all incomplete, I hate it with my entire body and being. The world should be complete. The world must change. Then, who will change it? Me, Cyrus. And Team Galactic. Yes, all of you. Together we pored over myths and exposed their secrets. Together we captured legendary Pokémon. And now, Team Galactic has obtained the energy to change the world! The power of dreams is within our grasp! Understand it, fellow members! My long-held dreamworld is on the verge of becoming reality. All those headed to Mt. Coronet, and those who remain here... Though our missions may differ, our hearts beat as one. Let there be glory for Team Galactic!"

-

"But, I must say... You are a remarkable specimen. Those Pokémon have nothing to do with you, do they? But still you come to rescue them out of pity? Such pitifully useless emotions... It's illogical and irrational. Pity and compassion are products of the weak and faulty human heart. You were compelled to come here by such vacuous sentimentality! I will make you regret paying heed to your heart!"

Perhaps pay attention to the fucking dialogue, Lily. Because these are pretty blunt and obvious examples. Cyrus appeals to people feeling that the world is harsh and unfair, promising them a bright tomorrow if they listen to him. Then he explains how he believes emotions have caused these problems so he wishes to erase them.

"Oh really Looker? You think I'm so dumb that-"

Lily, you just got done humiliating yourself by being outsmarted by a children's game and will continue that streak throughout this video.

Yes, you are that dumb.

"Cyrus has double the dialogue Maxie and Archie have in these games but it is so stilted and devoid of personality! Archie and Maxie are SOO much better by being stupid and trying to better the world-!"

Lily, those guys were not intended on being stupid. They were intended to be well intentioned extremists. They seem stupid because the games made their acts so dumb that the intentions are overshadowed by their stupidity.

Cyrus does more than try to be evil, you can tell from comparing his dialogue to Giovanni's-

"Blast it all! You ruined our plans for Silph! But Team Rocket will never fall! <Player>, never forget that all Pokémon exist for Team Rocket! I must go, but I shall return!"

And his so-called 'stilted' dialogue would probably fit a man who is OPENLY TRYING TO RID THE WORLD OF EMOTION. If your assessment is correct- that would be good writing.

Archie and Maxie are badly written. You are praising bad writing over good writing.

"Platnium has gotten away from the feeling of adventure that makes Pokemon good-"

You know what helps with a sense of adventure Lily?

A story. Something to give structure and stimulation to the player.

You praised one of the dullest games in the series in Emerald and are going to praise THE dullest game in the series. All while demonizing the games that actually stimulate.

You're full of shit.

Heartless Parasite Game Concept - Current Progress & Demo

So I've been spending the week talking about this game and what I want it to be like. You can even check out the Warclema Master Post for links to those posts. Now, I'm going to share what I've completed of it so far.

I've sadly only got two levels for Kisei's side of the story, neither of which is complete. It's just a tutorial level with the sheep host body and the parent helping out, and a combat level with two enemies. The gameplay is supposed to represent her abilities as a neutromorph (they're in the master post I linked earlier).

Tutorial Level

It's supposed to be an easy level to teach the basics while removing the stakes and the risk of failure. Instead of trying to protect the host body from damage, you're protecting it from filth, but it uses the same concepts that are used for dealing with damage.

It uses mouse controls. Left click places a black marker or turns a yellow marker back to black. Right click removes markers, which is useful because you can only have so many on the board at once (they represent neutroslime, which the character only has so much of). The top left corner has a counter to indicate how many you have available to place. You can hold a button down and drag across the board to place/refresh/remove markers more quickly.

The things to deal with are mud (which use the wound graphic I made for the combat portion) and leaves. Mud can be removed by having black marker placed over it for long enough with the length of time being variable. If you're quick, you can place a black marker where the mud will be and it won't even show up. Leaves on the other hand have to be surrounded to be removed.

You may be wondering about the yellow markers in the screenshot. If left alone, black markers will eventually turn yellow, becoming inactive. This is supposed to represent the tendency of neutroslime to revert back to an inactive form if concentration on it lapses.

I still have some code put in for placing a leaf when space is pressed.

Combat Level

A level to show off combat. There are only two enemies so far. One is supposed to be a swarm of fish that can fly, and the other is supposed to be a rhinoceros with fire magic.

The fish randomly chooses between a simple wound attack, rapid attacks, and an attack that leaves one of its fish stuck on the board (remove just like leaves in the tutorial level). Pretty much weak and fast sort of theme.

The fire rhino, or pyroceros, is more of a heavy hitter, doing attacks that do greater damage or wound a larger area. While the attacks from the fish can be blocked by placing a neutroslime marker where it's going to be, a number of the pyroceros' attacks will actually pierce through it, though the attempt to block will reduce the damage. It also has fire damage, and some attacks will produce a flame that will move across the board, leaving burns. It will have to quickly be extinguished by placing a neutroslime marker over it.

The auto attack button at the top determines the speed of combat and cycles between off and three speeds. Kisei and enemies have the same attack speed at the moment, but there are plans to change that.

Also, it's possible to swap between enemies with space.

This is Nowhere Near Complete

I am still using graphics that I just threw together. I am still deciding how to handle the star points on the board. I'm pretty much ignoring Epy's half of the gameplay for now. There is still a lot to do.

Current Snag

Have you ever taken a break from playing an RPG and come back to it with no idea where in the plot you were or what you are supposed to do next? Well, I had some computer trouble that left me without my computer that I was making this on for an extended period of time. It's been over two months since I got it working again, but I still sort of dread trying to continue from where I left off. Yes, it's a stupid reason to put off getting back to making it, but it's the mental block I have to overcome.

Want to Try it Out?

You can download my current demo of it at this link.

Next Post

Next post is going to be the poll for next week's topic. I've decided to try switching things up by posting them around the same time.

Online fantasy games have captured the imaginations of millions around the world, offering players an escape into intricate, imaginative universes where they can live out their wildest dreams. if you want Lords Exchange Contact Number These games are more than just a form of entertainment; they are a medium for storytelling, social interaction, and personal growth. This essay explores the development, appeal, and impact of online fantasy games, illustrating how they have become a significant cultural phenomenon.

The Genesis of Online Fantasy Games

The origins of online fantasy games can be traced back to text-based adventures and early role-playing games (RPGs) from the 1970s and 1980s. Games like "Dungeons & Dragons" laid the groundwork for the fantasy genre, establishing conventions such as detailed world-building, complex characters, and immersive narratives. With the advent of the internet, these elements were adapted into digital formats, leading to the creation of Multi-User Dungeons (MUDs) and later, Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Games (MMORPGs).

MMORPGs like "Ultima Online" (1997) and "EverQuest" (1999) were pioneers in bringing persistent, shared virtual worlds to players, where thousands could interact simultaneously. The release of "World of Warcraft" (2004) marked a turning point, setting new standards for the genre with its expansive world, engaging storylines, and social features. This game attracted millions of players and demonstrated the potential of online fantasy games as both a commercial success and a cultural staple.

The Appeal of Online Fantasy Games

The enduring popularity of online fantasy games can be attributed to several factors. First and foremost, these games offer a unique form of escapism. Players can immerse themselves in fantastical worlds that are vastly different from their everyday lives, allowing them to experience adventures, magic, and epic battles.

Moreover, online fantasy games provide a sense of community and social interaction. Unlike single-player games, MMORPGs and similar genres emphasize collaboration and competition among players. Gamers can form guilds, participate in large-scale raids, and engage in player-versus-player (PvP) combat, fostering a sense of camaraderie and shared purpose.

Customization and progression also play crucial roles in the appeal of these games. Players can create and develop their characters, choosing from a variety of races, classes, and abilities. As they progress through the game, they acquire new skills, equipment, and achievements, providing a continuous sense of accomplishment and growth.

The Evolution of Online Fantasy Games

Over the years, online fantasy games have evolved significantly, driven by technological advancements and changing player preferences. Modern games feature stunning graphics, intricate storylines, and sophisticated gameplay mechanics that were unimaginable in the early days of the genre. Virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) technologies are beginning to make their mark, offering even more immersive experiences.

Additionally, the monetization strategies of online fantasy games have evolved. While early games relied primarily on subscription models, many modern games have adopted free-to-play models with microtransactions. This approach has broadened the accessibility of these games, allowing more players to join without an upfront cost, though it has also sparked debates about the ethics of in-game purchases.

The Impact of Online Fantasy Games

The impact of online fantasy games extends beyond the gaming community. These games have influenced popular culture, inspiring books, movies, and television series. They have also contributed to the growth of esports, with competitive gaming tournaments attracting large audiences and substantial prize money.

Furthermore, online fantasy games have had social and psychological effects on players. For many, these games provide a sense of belonging and identity, particularly for those who may feel isolated in their offline lives. However, they can also lead to issues such as addiction and social withdrawal if not managed properly.

Conclusion

Online fantasy games are a testament to the power of human creativity and the enduring appeal of fantastical storytelling. They have evolved from simple text-based adventures to complex, immersive worlds that captivate millions. While they offer significant benefits in terms of entertainment, social interaction, and personal growth, it is important for players to engage with them mindfully. As technology continues to advance, the future of online fantasy games promises even more exciting and immersive experiences, ensuring that they will remain a beloved pastime for generations to come.

[unfortunately-a-fangirl]

aouu tough question but two answers if it's favorite one personally or favorite game generally.

Personally I think I've liked the Civilization games the most (it bounces between Civ4 and Civ5). While I have to give some deference to, like, Three-S for the 2600 or Va-11 Hall-A for PC which I both love, the Civilization franchise really was the start for me fucking around with computers and programming, and also helped get me started with being fascinated with world building. The idea of trying to get players to emulate historical civilizations in addition to balancing the strategy game with more educational elements is really something that has stuck with me for my whole life. Plus I like it when map do a funny shape and the colors.

Of games generally, I think it's a toss-up between LamdaMOO, pedit5, and Super Star Trek. They're all games in the RPG lineage (LamdaMOO and pedit5 are also milestones on the road to the MMO, but nevermind that for now), but I think that they're not as well known as they should be. I am basing a decent chunk of what I know off of Aaron Reed's 50 Years of Text Games, which I strongly recommend.

Starting with the earliest, Super Star Trek (~1970) was a type-in BASIC game that is the immediate progenitor to Rogue (in a sense, Rogue was a Star Trek-like) with players navigating a randomly generated galaxy as a member of Star Fleet hunting down Klingons. While it wasn't as complex as Adventure or Zork, it was definitely revolutionary in terms of how people concieved of games. Many games of the era were either in the arcade space or on mainframe computers, but this was a major leap forward in terms of what one could do on a home computer.

Pedit5 (~1975) was one of the first multi-user dungeons (MUD) with text-based graphics and basic RPG elements (leveling, equipment, names, classes, monsters, spells, gold). While many of these influences were not unique to Pedit5 (having taken them from D&D, which had been developed around the same time in the same region), Pedit5 created a persistent world with multiple people in what I consider to be among the first in the MMO lineage.

LamdaMOO (1990) is similarly, in this lineage, but is fascinating to me in that the world was built by its users. Registered users of LamdaMOO have (it's still online!) the ability to create new objects within the world of any type. This includes stuff like Rooms, Newspapers, Helicopters, and even the character one plays. While there were unsavory events that really killed off LamdaMOO when the developers tried to sell it as a social experiment, there's exists a body of research focused on how users interacted. I would note the promulgation of spivak pronouns (e/em/eirs) and work on emoticons and digital identity in this regard.

The second set of favorite games generally would probably change if you asked me later, since they're the first ones that came to mind, but I think it gives a good overview :-)

ask questions of me and i shall answer them but dont feel pressured i suppose but i would very much like to answer them

Your fics are amazing! Would you ever write about König?

𝐂𝐑𝐘𝐏𝐓𝐈𝐃 — 𝐊𝐎𝐍𝐈𝐆

synopsis : rumours of an elite soldier have the base reeling. murmurings of 'monster' and 'freak'. what happens when you come face to face with the beast, only to find he's nothing like the whispers cautioned?

pairing : könig x f!reader

warnings : 18+ mdni. war, violence, graphic gory imagery, self-conscious könig baby, little bit of hand kink, basic bitch smut, p in v sex, unprotected sex, size kink, tight fit, sugar-sweet teeth rotting smut. this feels so basic… but I was struggling. please note, kilgore is a name previously linked to könig. I have used it as a codename 🙂

Warfare training preps for the inevitable—those moments you need to fire a weapon and how to camouflage and navigate enemy territory without detection. These inescapable horrors are 'another day in the office' by the time you enter the field, the prickling chill of fear driven out of your system. Whistling RPGs are not dissimilar to the scream of your Drill Sergeant's commands, the cold, hard ground of a dilapidated building no more uncomfortable than the standard-issue barracks mattress you would ease your wearing bones into after training. 

Fear, beaten out of each man and woman that slipped on the uniform, held no commonplace in the military. Weapons, the call to war, brutality and sirens did little to raise the blood pressure. 

Whispers held far more weight and struck unease into the hearts of even the most desensitised of fighters. 

It was inarguable that each military in every country, at any time, had its own 'boogeyman'. Notorious fighters with absurdly large kill counts consisting of three digits that inevitably earned a bounty for their head, funded by the enemy—elite warriors who acquired a legendary reputation that ultimately became horror stories. The Ghost of Kyiv, The American Sniper Chris Kyle. These military cryptids kept their enemies awake at night, baying for blood and begging for the piles of bodies they left behind to stop growing. 

After years in the SAS, you were beginning to think that there was no such thing. Each soldier was prolific, brutally efficient and inarguably the best of the elite forces. It was only upon entering Task Force 141, a genuinely mean feat, that you began to hear the unshunnable, hushed whispers of Kilgore. 

“Did you hear about Berlin?” 

“Kilgore? Yeah, heard he blew away a whole Al-Qatala cell.”

“Twelve of ‘em. The hostages were traumatised.”

These mumblings had persisted for months, consistently updated with crazy tales of whole garrisons blown to smitheries by this massacre-happy hulking mass of pure military precision. You, like the rest of 141, elected to ignore the gossip. This was a battlefield, filled with elite soldiers, not a school playground. 

                            ✰

Austrian mud splatters your camo-clad shins as you sprint through the forest terrain, your heart lurching in your chest as your rain-soaked fingers almost fumble your gun to the sodden ground. It’s freezing cold, the gush of rain edging on a flurry of sleet as lightning cracks above your head. Clothes soaked through, the moisture and icy wind form something of a ‘Pact of Steel’, working together to deep freeze the marrow of your bones. 

As you slip in the mud again, heel skidding across the slick soil, you realise how dire the situation truly is. Separated from 141 during the firefight, you’d navigated north. You continued running for the safe house once discovering your coms had been dispatched by a stray bullet— that certainly would have ripped through your heart and dispatched you instantly if not for the layers of plastic settled over it. 

Thunder rumbles in the clouds above, the boom reminiscent of a distant air strike. Slurried earth gives way beneath your feet as you push on. Exhaustion gnaws at your joints as you scramble for safety, bested only by the adrenaline that buzzed in your ear like a vicious drill sergeant. “Move it! Do you wanna die?! Well fucking move!” 

You can hear their boots in the mud, the advancing Al-Qatala mercenaries chasing after you and shooting blindly at your heels, competing with the distance and dense foliage. You’re like an injured fox, feverish bloodhounds nipping at the end of your tail— what could they do with an SAS hostage? How much leverage would it buy? 

Bullets whistle by your feet, the proximity of some enough to set your hair on end. They’re closing in, jowls dripping with slobber as they attempt to close their teeth around you. Just a little mor—

Crack. 

Chaos erupts behind you, the thump of a body and a flurry of shouts. Panicked voices overlay each other in different languages, Urzik and Persian. You scramble for cover behind a treetrunk, the bark cutting at your palms as you brace for incoming fire. 

"Kilgore!" Someone shouts, and your blood runs cold, eyes wide as they dart around the foliage for the legendary soldier. The whizzing of high-powered bullets persists, dropping Al-Qatala mercenaries into the mud beneath them. You hear the yelled orders, Urzik fighters urged to retreat.

You're unsure if one fails to hear the directive over the din of warfare, but you hear the advancing feet of the mercenary advancing on your position—the squelch of the mud beneath the rubber sole of his combat boots. You scramble with your weapon, checking the gun's safety and readying for a one-shot shoot-out. 

When a bullet shreds through a victim's head, the sound is reminiscent of a watermelon being cracked open. It's a sickening crunch. A wet spray of warm blood cuts through the downpour of rain, splattering across your face. Some of it is solid, brain matter and shards of cranium. 

It's not silent by any means. The rain continues to beat against the floor, pattering in the puddles that had formed in sole-shaped prints in the soaked earth. Cracks of thunder sound in the distance, and the droplets drum against the leaves in the forest's canopy. However, the sounds of the firefight cease. 

"You can come out," a voice calls to you. Accented; Germanic. You hesitate for a moment, once again strengthening your grip on the gun you'd clung to. Your lungs strain with the sudden intake of breath, ribs crushed beneath your tac-vest. "Ghost sent me." 

Easing your head out from behind the tree trunk, you marvel, somewhat horrified, at the gigantic, hulking build of the man who stood in the clearing. Fallen enemy combatants surround him, a blanket of corpses draped across the turbid forest floor. A black veil covers his face, and his equipment litters his tac-vest. 

You'd be lying if you said you were unperturbed by the sight. Instead, fear lurches in the pit of your stomach, and you freeze in place. It's only when your eyes catch the crystal white slicing through crimson on the patch sewn into his shoulder that the airy voice, which certainly doesn't match his enormous frame, brings you a sense of safety. 

"The safe house is ahead. We could get you warm–– clean you up?"

                            ✰

Staring into the bubbling pan of water settled over the small fire, you relish in the warmth that creeps across your chilled body. Still, you're soaked, the damp clinging to the threads of your clothes. The scent of iron still assaults your nose, the water that you pick off the fire cautiously heated enough to scrub the blood from your face. 

Kilgore, who informed you upon entering the safehouse preferred to be called by his name König, had seated himself in the corner of the large, relatively empty room. He looked ridiculous like this, attempting to compact his body into the crevice. You don't doubt it's an attempt to ease the nervous energy bleeding through your pores, your hands trembling as you attempt to dip the rag he had gifted you into the hot water. 

"Did..." You swallow thickly, glancing up at the Austrian, "Did you tell the Lieutenant where we are?" 

"Mhm-hm," he nods slowly, his jade eyes watching you from beneath the face veil. They're sharp and bright, contrasting so strongly against his uniform's muted and inky shades. "He's planning evac." 

You scrub the gore from your face, wincing as you feel the shards of bone scrape across your face. König's eyes bore into you from the other side of the room, watching you struggle to remove what was left of the grime the rain had failed to wash away. 

"I've-... Heard a lot about you," you speak to him, attempting to cross the vast space he had consciously put between you. His green eyes gaze at you, unblinking as he watches your expression. König is trying to read you, trying to comprehend how you feel. He's cautious, trying not to push you outside of your comfort zone. 

"About Berlin?" He asks, and his voice is so soft that it reminds you of a child attempting to speak after being reprimanded by their parents–– wary of a second bout of raised voices. 

"Yes," you mumble, dipping the crimson rag into the water before laying it across your skin again, "About Berlin." 

König hums softly, casting his eyes to the aged, wooden floorboards. The woodlice have chewed through them, moss growing in some parts. You can see he appears uncomfortable, his knuckles white from the fists that form in his lap. 

"I didn't mean to scare anyone," König admits in a whisper, catching you off guard. His shoulders sag slightly, and you see him pick at loose threads in the knees of his camo trousers. 

"N-No... I meant to say how courageous it was," you point out, watching his fidgeting hands still suddenly, "You risked your life for those hostages... saved them singlehandedly. No one else would have done that." 

Hesitant silence settles between you both, König considering your words carefully as he stares at his lap. You can't see his face, the veil concealing all but his eyes, though you're almost sure he's stunned by your comment. It takes him a moment to discern his next step, but he finally lifts his body from the wooden chair he'd pulled into the corner. It creaks with the shift in weight distribution, floorboards straining as he walks across the space towards you. 

"You also saved me," you point out, watching him kneel before you, "Faced a whole cell..."

König steals your words from your mouth when his huge hand settles around the bloodied rag in your palm. He doesn't speak at; first, silence hanging between you once again as he dips the cloth into the water. Then, he soaks it until it drips, droplets pinging off the surface, and wrings it out. His dorsal muscles ripple beneath the backs of his palm, veins a ballpoint colour and standing out against his pale skin. 

"Ghost asked me to," he mumbles, carefully holding the damp fabric and slowly reaching for your face. He gives you time to pull away–– you don't. 

"You could have ignored him," you whisper, suddenly breathless with this proximity. He still towers over you, even balanced on his knees, head and shoulders slumped over you. You can see the ocean green of his eyes clearly, the halo of brown flecks that cover the circumference of his pupil. His eyelashes flutter when he blinks, so pretty and oddly feminine. 

The pressure of the cloth against your skull is so delicate. König appears to be afraid of hurting you, gently brushing away the flecks of blood in your hairline. He shakes his head gently, considering your kind words. "What kind of man would I be, Leibchen?" his voice is airy, tone flimsy.

Those stunning eyes take a moment to gaze into yours, searching for your answer. Instead, all you manage is a weak shrug. 

"Were... Are they afraid of you?" You whisper to him, struggling to find the words to broach a topic that appears to affect König so profoundly. It's his turn to answer wordlessly, offering an equally frail nod. 

König takes your chin ever so gently in his hand, his palm almost eclipsing the lower half of your face, and turns your head in search of further blood-spatter. He sweeps the makeshift face-cloth over your skin, focusing on removing the grime altogether. 

You'd heard the cruel rumours, the whispers of 'monster' and 'freak'. This König you'd met couldn't possibly be the same they uttered about maliciously. He held a child-like kindness, the brutality of the job seemingly doing little to chip away at his humanity. The same couldn't be said about the others. 

"König," you whisper his name softly, watching as he continues to focus on clearing up your skin. His soothing touch smoothes across your temple now, removing some mud speckles. "Don't listen to them."

You can see his eyes soften, once again turning to yours as you reach to fiddle with the edge of his veil. Upon tracing the border between the pads of your thumb and forefinger, you find that it's t-shirt material, the zigzag seam stitching rough against your touch like barbed wire. "They haven't seen you like I have." 

Those eyes gleam with amusement, little crows-feet creases forming in the corners. He's smiling, and your heart stutters against your chest. 

"That right, Leibchen? I've had a mask on this whole time."

The gentle teasing lilt to his tone makes you lightheaded, urging you forward with your frankly ridiculous plan. You begin to lift the edge of his veil upwards. You take it slowly, his pupils dancing across the bare skin of your face as you reveal the point of his chin. His skin is equally as pale there, barely exposed to sunlight.

König doesn't stop you as you continue to lift the fabric from his face, exposing the curve of his lower lip. The skin there is soft and plush, little creases in the flesh making your heart thud awkwardly against your ribs. Finally, you stop at his cupid's bow, so soft and subtle it's barely there at all. 

You can feel his gaze warming your skin as you trace his lips with your eyes. Hesitation holds you still, uncertain about the final step of this stupid plan. König, as ever, doesn't push you. Doesn't even breathe. When you lean forward, the tip of your nose brushing his own that still lay beneath the cloth, you hear a sharp yet gentle inhalation. It triggers goosebumps across your forearms, butterflies battering the pit of your stomach. 

Soft. His lips are so soft when you mould your own to their shape. König's veil tickles the skin of your face when you kiss him, and you feel his gigantic hands settle on either side of your neck as he begins to return your affections. They swallow you, and your pulse leaps against his palm. 

König smiles, and the kiss turns toothy and a little lopsided. You can't help but giggle nervously, his thumb tracing the curve of your jaw as he presses gentle pecks to the edge of your mouth. Despite his massive, intimidating frame, each action is deliberate and soft. 

"... Are your clothes still wet, Schatz?" He's breathless despite his seemingly put-together appearance, his nose bumping yours as he interrupts your answer for another fragile kiss. "We could get you out of them." 

                            ✰

Your standard-issue military t-shirt slips and falls from the cot's mattress as König gently pulls your hips towards the edge. His fingerprints have already bruised into your thighs despite his attempts to be gentle. When he'd begun to panic, you told him not to worry–– he'd already bruised up your neck with his teeth and lips; what was a couple more?

Butterflying your legs out for him, König groans softly as you expose your glistening cunt for him. You're shy, covering your face with your hands as his fingers massage the soft, malleable flesh of the inside of your thighs. 

"Schatz," he whispers, and you peer through the gaps of your fingers. König gazes down between your legs, green eyes gleaming as he positions his cock between your folds. "So beautiful." 

It's ridiculous, you think, staring down between your legs. König is huge in every sense, the shaft of his cock thick and veiny and drowning out the seam of your sex as König shifts his hips forward to swipe the length of him across your weeping cunt. You can't help your mind running away with itself–– surely he needed a weapons license to carry that thing-?

A weak chuckle sounds above you, and you crane your neck to catch his eye. "I will take it slow, Schatz, I promise you."

You believe him. He had been so delicate with you this whole time, laying you down gently on the bed, careful when removing your gear and your clothes not to let the material snag on your nose or chin. 

König's hand disappears beneath the face veil, spitting into his palm before he smoothes it over the head of his cock. He groans, eyelids fluttering beneath the mask as he drags his hand over the length. It's a pretty sight, you think, such a colossal man shuddering in bliss. When he sweeps his cock through your folds again, he carefully taps the tip of his dick against your clit to illicit a whimper. 

"Mhmm, gentle. I promise you," he repeats, inching the tip of his cock down until it settles at your entrance. The soles of your feet find purchase on König's hips, and he massages your calves gently as he begins to inch into you at your nod of approval. 

Oh, Christ. 

König stretches you the moment he sinks inside. There's a delicious burn, one that has you lifting your hips with a whimper as you equally try to escape and dive into it. He's wheezing, eyes glued to where your bodies meet as he watches you flutter around his size. 

"Ha-So tight, Schatz," he groans loudly, stopping when you firmly grip the bedsheets. He notes your expression of slight pain, the tears welling in your eyes as your body attempts to accommodate the intrusion. König seemingly can't help the flurry of apologies that fall from his mouth as he leans over you, settling his thumb against your clit in an attempt to ease you open. "Here. I want you to feel good, Engel." 

The tremors in your thighs rattle against his hips as he circles your clit slowly. It's blissful, the sticky, warm arousal that blooms through your abdomen as he teases at the sensitive nerves. You arch your back against the mattress, moaning out his name breathlessly as he continues to inch his cock further into you. You barely notice when he finally settles the rest of him inside, wailing softly when it twitches and knocks something earthshattering inside you. 

"O-Oh fuck––" you choke on your curse when König shifts his hips forward, jutting into your cervix and winding you suddenly. You probably look ridiculous, eyes rolling back into your skull as you claw at the vast expanse of his chest. You drag pink lines down the pale skin, drawing blood to the surface, but it does little to phase König this far along.  

"Good, Liebling?" He murmurs, continuing to assault your clit. You can barely form a coherent sentence in response, drooling around a string of 'yes, yes, yes'. It's all he needs to find comfort in advancing, easing the length of him out of your weeping cunt before driving it back in at an achingly slow pace. 

You want to slam your fist against his pectorals and insist he go faster, but you're not sure you're ready for it when he slides into you balls deep. It's as though he's settling among your lungs, filling you so good that you're seeing static in your line of vision. 

The sound of a desperate groan from above barely brings you back down to earth, noting how he's staring at your face. His pupils are blown wide, almost devouring the green of his irises. It takes you a moment to realise you're drooling, his slow and steady pace already pushing you to a mindless edge. 

"Oh-" you moan, digging your nails into his abs. They ripple beneath your touch with each deliberate thrust, and König hisses at the sharp sting and the crescent moon indents they leave behind. "F-Fuck, König- Too much-!"

"It's too much?" He wheezes, eyes searching your face. You desperately shake your head, terrified he'll pull away from you despite the inching arousal building at the base of your spine. Wrapping your legs around his hips, your heels press into the small of his back and hook him in place despite your protests. 

It sparks something feral in the hulking man, his hips surging forwards and jolting you up the mattress. Your breath escapes you in a squeak, arousal soaring and buzzing thickly in your abdomen as König mumbles in German, his soft voice coming out all gritty under the strain of his exertions and bliss. 

"Mhmmm- fuck-" you babble, eyes rolling again as you lift your hips to meet his. He sinks impossibly deeper, and your breath stutters as you feel the telltale tug of your orgasm. "Oh God- König, I'm-"

"Tell me," König whispers, rutting up inside you. He doesn't bother to inch out of you now, repeatedly battering so deep inside you that you struggle to inhale as your orgasm approaches fast. 

"Hngngg- hah-ah- I'mgonna- c-cum-" you choke with each sudden thrust, his thumb quickening its pace against your arcing clit. Perhaps he shifts his hips slightly or reaches even deeper than before, but he brushes against something utterly debilitating, and you cum with a loud shriek of his name. 

It bursts through you with blistering heat, your fingernails sinking deep into the curves of his bicep as you brace against the waves of bliss that crash over you. König keeps fucking into you, your walls squeezing tight around him as his thumb persists in its assault on your throbbing clit. Tears stream down your face, and König can't hold on much longer as you strangle his cock. 

"Hah-Shit-" he slurs, his voice barely reaching your ears as he buries himself as deep as you can take him. He cums with a haggard moan, body trembling as his cock spurts inside of you. There's so much of it, too, leaking out of you before he even manages to move. 

Both of you take a moment, both stunned by the overwhelming ecstasy. König doesn't bother withdrawing from your heat as he slumps beside you, turning you on your side to face him. He offers no words, burying his face into the crook of your neck and holding you tightly. 

Your chest heaves as you suck in oxygen, skin prickling with heat as König encases you in his massive arms. You don't need the sheets, his body-heat burning hot beside you as you press your skin to his.

No words need to be said, you think. König had offered his feelings in the form of his reverent touches and delivered his thanks for your kindness in the delicate kisses he'd pressed to your lips as he carried you into the bedroom. 

As you lay in the dark, settled into König's side, you trace your fingers over the curved scars, the bulletholes that have healed over against his ribs. They rise and fall beneath your touch, lungs expanding and deflating with each breath. It's a sobering moment, the thrumming of his pulse against your palm reminding you of his humanity despite the whispers at the base that had insisted upon his bestiality. 

You realise those who speak cruelly of him and ruin his self-worth don't understand their impact. To them, he's a cryptid–– his very existence called into question. They hadn't seen him with their own eyes, only heard the mind-boggling tales of his startlingly impressive missions and monstrous size. 

They hadn't felt his heart, the way it fluttered against your touch when you'd offered compliments. Hadn't experienced the soft plush of his lips pressing into your own in heartbreakingly sweet kisses. He was no monster. 

And when Lieutenant Riley came for you the following day, choosing to ignore the marks left on your skin and the way you hesitated before climbing into the helicopter to offer the Austrian a gentle wave and a promise that you would return, you began the mission to rewrite his story. To change hearts and minds.  

It didn't take long at all.

"Did you hear about Kilgore?"

"I did! He saved a member of 141. Incredibly brave–– I heard the situation was dire."

"She spoke very highly of him. Said we could count on him."

"I certainly wouldn't mind fighting alongside someone so dependable and courageous."

[seblaine-rph]

it'd be so easy to do a s1 redo with age appropriate characters. you could have all the fun s1 drama and storylines but with characters that are 21+ and even alternative fcs to give it a twist, it surprises me there aren't any active rps like that around

Despite the one (super problematic) redo rp we can see in the tags, there aren’t any others. You’re right. And they are really easy to open up, run, and figure out plots and stuff for because you already have a full seven seasons worth of script to work with if you ever get lost. There have been rps like that before, which might be why there aren’t any now. Nobody wants to be the person that takes a thousand years to make a whole rpg only to get spammed with anons about how unoriginal and they are as thieves. I don’t think anyone looking to do a redo rp should feel like they might get harassed for theft, but it might happen. I can see gleerp sending out anon hate if another season one glee redo in college were to open up, even if they made their original. But it’s not like there’s anything unique or new that the admins over there created themselves, so there’s nothing for them to claim as intellectual property. If it were a season one redo with a twist, that might be a different story if someone were to snatch the unique twist. But it shouldn’t apply to the basic skeleton of a redo rp because you’re redoing something that someone else made, it’s not your original brain child.

Nobody wants to be the person that takes a thousand years to make a whole rpg only to get no apps either, because the community is pretty much dead and nobody applies to anything that their current friends aren’t already in. I wish it wasn’t like that, but it is. For this second issue, it would be nice if people were more open to joining things that aren’t made by their friends. If we could get that “I’ll join anything that looks interesting based on the plot and nothing else” energy back, we’d have a lot more rps in the tags. Graphics used to be the hot button, where nobody would app if the graphics weren’t stellar, but now it’s about friends. I remember seeing photoshop-less groups popping up a few years back to retaliate against the super pristine, elitist, you have to spend approximately ten lifetimes and sacrifice your first born to make a successful rp mentality, but those aren’t around anymore. I think that in general, the grpc and rp in general has been starting to really die off and wind down because people are no longer comfortable joining anything but their friend’s rps. So new people try to take their hand at admining an rp and in the past, that could have succeeded but in this rp climate.. it just ends up closing. Because people beg and scream for original rps all day and all night, but they won’t join them. The only rps in any of the tags that I’ve been able to find lately ALL have the same plot: open fandom or oc, everyone magically poofed from their hometowns and woke up here for no reason oh well here we are, let’s just write like that’s normal and nobody is going to be upset about being uprooted at all. The only rps I’m seeing in the grpc tag that are really active are just open town, no plot rps. All of the original ideas that I’ve seen started have all died off before they could even begin. Nobody seems to realize that by not applying to rps that are run by other people, they’re refusing to cross pollinate masterlists and create new breeds of friends that can blossom and flourish. If we all joined any rp we wanted to, we’d be making a ton of new friends left and right. Instead, we’re quarantined to our own friends and will only rp with the same people we’ve been rping with for five years. Think about it. If we all made our own rp, but refused to join anyone else’s rp... how are we going to get members in our rp? If nobody is joining anyone else’s rps? It’d just be the one admin per group and nobody else. You have to reach out and cross pollinate to keep the rpc active and fresh. I really do think that this right here is the number one killer of all things roleplay these days. I do still have places to rp but I have heard so many people complain about how hard it is to get their rp masterlist to flourish. 

It really would be easy though, and to be honest it would probably get more people involved in it than the pedophilic alternative. It’s 2021, not 2012 despite what my dyslexia might want to say about it sometimes; most people have learned how to spot and avoid a dumpster fire and with all of the people going to jail for internet activities that involve pedophilia and cp in 2020 and 2021 (I thought we learned the lesson with the former Glee actors much earlier than now, but I guess not), it’s no wonder people are avoiding pedo rps. You really have to want to engage in pedophilic activity to be hard-headed enough to not age the characters up appropriately and cause no actual harm to yourself or anyone else, it’s not like it used to be when people were dim enough to do it without thinking. Like twincest, incest, and other problematic behaviors that used to saturate the community... the silent time where people ignored the nasty and joined anyway while pretending to not see anything they thought might be problematic are over. We’ve all seen prominent figures in the grpc being torn down from their pedestals for engaging in problematic behavior, pedophilia being one of those things that people are getting mass hate for. So it really is a fight to keep writing it. You have to go through being dragged through the mud and hated on in order to cling to these things nowadays. To me, that just makes it even worse. Not only are we all advanced enough now to be beyond the 2012 insanity, it is also costly to a person’s reputation and ability to go through life without being flamed by anon hate to continue to live by offensive behavior in a way that wasn’t “real” back in 2012. Not to mention, we’re all 9 years older than we were back then. So we should have matured 9 years and we should be 9 years further away from being invested in children having sex and writing out the whole “teenage sexual awakening” and “coming of age” stories. Maybe 9 years ago when we were all 18, it might have been closer to relevant and something cathartic, but why on EARTH would someone that is around 30 years old still NEED to write children coming of age if not because they’re pedophiles? That’s the one argument I always see for this. But I want to write a coming of age story, but I want to write about my character maturing as a teenager and finding adulthood. WHY? Why do you want to do that? Why do you want to write that? Why do you want to obsess (because let’s be real, we all obsess over our muses and their relationships and lives) over children having sex? Why? Why can’t you write an appropriate coming of age story for someone in college? Why is it that the characters being 14 is so integral to your smut and your plot and your needs as a writer?

You’re also risking the law, as I’ve stated many times. Feel free to Google what happens when the FBI decides to look at your internet history and finds pedophilic content there. And the FBI will get involved if it’s a bigger case, like a roleplay group that contains a dozen members that are all tied to the pedophilic content. You can even Google “roleplay” with that and you’ll find horror stories of people being sentenced to 10-25+ years in FEDERAL PRISON for roleplaying the 18- having sex. That alone, if your morals are weak, should be enough to keep you away from writing pedophilic content. I just don’t see how anyone could ever say to themselves that they needed to write 14 year olds having sex SO BADLY that it was alright with them if it meant they had to go to prison for it. That’s making these people’s need to write child porn sound like an addiction. Nasty.

I honestly, truly, definitely, genuinely do not understand. You have to be a SERIOUS, GENUINE, SERIOUS PEDOPHILE with a SERIOUS PROBLEM to be willing to write in a group like gleerp that has minors having sex in it. Look at the risk. I do not ever want to be able to understand how the “reward” of being able to write 14 year olds having sex with each other is going to outweigh the negative risk. Even just your run-of-the-mill, every day pedo is going to be too scared to do something like that, because the risk outweighs the reward. So.... I just don’t understand how 30 year old adults are so invested in these characters NEEDING TO BE children in order for them to want to write them. Like... Age them up to an appropriate age and make it a college rp and have exactly the same plots and exactly the same things and exactly the same everything except suddenly it’s appropriate and not pedophilia or... keep them kids and get hated on daily and risk getting yourself and everyone else in your group locked up? 

I think the choice is clear to any sane individual.

Red Dead Redemption 2 PC

Red Dead Redemption2 PC

The old west feels brand new again.

Oh Jesus Christ, what have you done? “Thomaschen 978 wants to know why a dozen carcasses and a couple of horse corpses are placed on rail tracks bordering the early industrial city and are the New Orleans stand-in St. Denis.” You killed half. village.” PC Games For Free

We are on round two of the recurring corpse pile. My poses got the idea to jump in front of the train after a few rounds of Lose Your Friends and Toss Them in the Sea in the Couple Friendly Strangers. Like GTA 5, Red Dead Redemption 2 has its own bowling minima, we explain to Chen in a roundabout way that provokes his fear. Die in the shared open world of Red Dead Redemption 2 and you’ll react fast enough to move your corpse around. Best RPGs games pc

The boy is in line with us. We should make it bigger. As the train comes around again, another pose tries to take us out. The chain defends us but does not bring it back to the tracks. He goes away screaming. Death of a true warrior.

Red Dead Redemption 2 could be the biggest, most humble videogame ball pit for an annoying story about impulsive children, the forced disintegration of the community, or simply a quiet and reflective hiking simulator. It’s just about what you need it to be, and it’s good at it.

Just hours before the corpse-bowling, I was alone through the icy forests, stepping into the long shadow cast across the snow by the rising moon. I heard a gunshot from a distance. The tracks of some wolves marked snow in the same direction. I saw them who won. Anytime I pay attention and look closely, RDR2 is the result of my curiosity. Best Racing games on pc

The mind-numbing expanse that makes up the vast world of RDR2 speaks to the creative force of a development team with an intense, obsessive dedication to realism (and all the money and time needed to do so). Like how my friends’ characters flare up when I fire a gun at them, how animal carcasses disintegrate over time, how NPCs react according to a sloppy or bloody outfit, how to stir through a doorway. Scares everyone everywhere.

It is hard to believe that RDR2 is so deep and wide and is also a harmonious, playable thing. I was already playing it for days worth the console version. This is why I am particularly disappointed that it ended up on the PC to some extent.

For every non-taught multiplayer adventure, disconnect or crash on the desktop, desktop. The rock star’s best storyline and character so far has been filmed through Frame Hutches’ slideshow and addressed over the launch weekend.

RDR2, one of the best Western games and one of the best open-world games I have ever released with enough stability issues, is recommended for the hard way until everything is completely smooth.

Morgan trail

EVERY PRETTY VISTA IS SOMETHING TO LOSE THROUGH ARTHUR’S EYES.

The story genre of Red Dead Redemption 2 follows the dying days of the Wild West. The sprawling industrial world faced the bandits and social downtrodden of Arthur Morgan’s small band, an imperfect but loyal, loving and self-reliant community.

Capitalism is reducing its value as resources to humans. Indigenous USA America is driven from the plains to make way for ‘civilization’ and commerce. The forests are brought down for timber, the hills are cut down for coal, and Morgan’s chosen family is caught in the middle, forced to flee, assimilate, or respond with violent protests is done. They do all three.

This is Rockstar’s most serious drama, and it’s really, really long. If you are running, the story ends after 40 to 50 hours and then continues for 10 to 15. The main story missions of Red Dead 2 feature distinctly rockstar fare: ride to a destination that is talking to everyone, tightly scripting though, entertaining things, riding, and chatting to the final destination.

Missions are often thrilling action sequences or artificially mundane pictures of wrench labor and trade, full of long-winded Bespoke animations, and outstanding performances. They are only hopelessly harsh, to the point where it feels like I am following the stage directions rather than playing the role of a vagabond in the Old West.

Step out of line in these campaigns and this is a failed situation. As opposed to Red Dead Online, there are very few of them that encourage players to think for themselves, each designed to advance the story. The RDR2 show is at least a spectacle of the slow pace of life in the Old West.

This is not the death and theatricality of a lifetime; My favorite missions include shoveling, drinking wine with a friend, proposing an old romance and riding a hot air balloon. Working through a greater rut, stricter tasks are considered meaningful in the end anyway, inspired by extraordinary, ambient world-building and characterization.

Side missions, minigames, small activities, and random world events — whether they hunt great guns, capture a play, or stumble upon a woman trapped under a horse — all set Arthur’s character and setting in subtle, rich ways. Please inform.

Nested in the third act of a fully animated and voice theatrical performance, something like 10 minutes, it is possible that the response button is pressed after an artist has included a telephone. Arthur would shout, “Hell with the telephone!” It is an optional activity, a long one, and an option is to react in that short window. I think most players will remember this, but this is Canad Response 1 through 3 because this is something Arthur would say, a rageless goofy set his way in the right way.

He would write complete, real diary entries about the 50-hour campaign, sketching memorable scenes and depicting the state of affairs of his chosen family, which people once knew changed their fortunes between hope and despair. It is meant to be a completely alternative reading, but a refreshingly intimate take on a masculine figure that unsettles many doubts and hopes as to the next person.

He sings himself on a lonely ride and lowers his old body in the mirror. He will have an exciting conversation with the horseshoe woman as he gives her a ride into town, both commenting on the troubles of working for wealthy, ungrateful men as a growing necessity. I feel it all. Best horror games on pc free

Hillbillies can capture him after making the camp, a couple may try to rob him after inviting him to dinner, a man with snakebite can come out of the forest by stumbling and tell him to suck venom is. These haphazard encounters portray brutal life on the fading frontier, as nature pushes back against inner poppers who want to change it. Arthur is the perfect vessel to see it

This is because Arthur Morgan is one of the darkest human characters I have played during a great turning point in American history, playing a playful, cruel and compassionate role according to differing theories.

The game world, beautiful as it is, is made more beautiful and tragic by how it is ready to play it on every occasion. Every beautiful vista has something to lose through Arthur’s eyes, power lines and train tracks, cut through the skies, and the rest of his life is slowly filling with factory smoke. Just about everyone sees a sad end in RDR2, too. This is a story that I might not sustain every moment, but I will not forget its brutal arc or the man in the middle of it all. God damn is it sad? An apocalypse that led to this.

Ren Der Reflection

Assuming that you are able to run it at high settings, the biggest strength of RDR2 is how it exquisitely renders the Old West setting on PC, drawing more attention to the nuanced details that make it. This is one of the best looking games I’ve seen and a rare experience that justifies a new GPU or CPU.

Better draw distance and a greater range of vegetation detail were added, making some vistas look photographic. Long shadows vary from walking or roaming between places to rides, to cute nature tours. Due to animal attacks, bullet holes, rain, mud, or rapid flow of blood, the markings on the clothes are caused by very high-resolution textures, which tell a very little story about your friends.

A new photo mode makes it easy to share those moments of amazement. The way the player rides on RDR2 for just sightseeing and sounds is an important feature. I am desperately trying to get an artistic portrait of my horse’s silhouette to sit against the moon, yet another self-proclaimed goal was tolerated by this ridiculously large complex game.

With 2080, i9-9900K and 32GB of RAM, I can run RDR2 mostly on ultra settings with some resource-intensive settings completely off or switched off. But some hardware combinations are proving troublesome for RDR2, leading to random crashes in some APIs and, more recently, to a hotfix, leading to hitching problems for some 4-core CPUs.

During the first weekend, I couldn’t spend more than an hour without crashing on the desktop, though Vulcan switched from DX12 (which gives me better framerates) back to static stuff. Sometimes the UI malfunctions and I cannot select a select or purchase option, the map fails to appear, or I get paged unexpectedly from game servers.

The graphics settings are almost too much as well, and probably confusing. In our test, only a handful of settings affected performance by more than 1-2 percent. Large residuals, the mapping between MSAA, volumetric lighting, and parallax occlusion, affect performance by 5 to 25 percent. Most of them don’t make a big visual difference anyway and are best left out.

The way the settings are presented is made to feel underdeveloped: a huge list with unclear presets that require tinkering to make RDR2 run in a satisfactory framerate. It is hard. The PC should be the best place to play, not the best place to play, after all, after a few patches. It’s a shame for a game to look good. upcoming pc games

Cowboy poetry Red Dead Redemption 2 PC

Like in singleplayer mode, in Red Dead Online I can make my goals reasonable and watch them. The problem is, it is basically hamstrung by a frustrating multiplayer leveling system that locks basic equipment and cosmetics behind long XP requirements that can meet hours, perhaps days,

The option is spending gold, premium currency, items and clothing to unlock them immediately. A fishing pole is not available until level 14. A damn fishing pole in an outdoor recreation game. This is not spectacular and is a terrible way to invest players.

out a basic suite of tools (fishing rod, bow, varmint rifle, nice hat, etc.), Red Dead Online opened up widely. I have largely ignored traditional matchmaking modes such as gunfights and horse races, cheap thrills, I will play much better versions in different games, to have fun. It led to the most inventive, serene, real, and sometimes buzzing echo I’ve ever had.

I once walked into the middle of a fire in Blackwater and took the player corpses one by one to the church cemetery. Some were captured and participated in the ‘burial’ of their friends. A corpse thanked me for the gesture. Later, in an extended streak of criminal activity, my pose and I caught another player and instead of killing them on the spot, we rode into the swamp and threw them into the garter infected waters. I got the idea to act like a friend. Best pc games 2017

On a less absurd note, I set myself a constant goal of earning strictly enough money from hunting to buy cool-weather gear and a fine rifle. I am going to hike in the mountains and find the best way to hide there, a wild mountain man adorned with animal skins, which almost touches the floor.

In the meantime, I’m stopping gunmen across the city by running through the streets and calling for a parley. I am participating in an eight-player ballroom. I am living the life of a normal cowboy in the best shepherd game. I hope it clears up soon.

Portrayal of Rape and Sexual Assault in the Wolf Art and RP Community

!TRIGGER WARNING! Rape/sexual assault will be discussed below this text. There will be one somewhat explicit excerpt from an RP. Please be warned.

I’m just going to dive right in here. There is a prevalence of dA animal comics and RPGs that use rape and sexual assault excessively. Not only is it common to come across, but it’s usually written in a horribly offensively way. Rape is a serious topic and deserves to be treated as such when being depicted in media. However, a large portion of people seem to write about it like it’s a fetish or  using it as “shock” value to make their writing seem more “adult.” Newsflash: writing about rape doesn’t make you an adult, nor does it make your story good.

What’s so bad about writing rape?

First off, let me state I’m not of the opinion that rape should never be written about. I don’t believe that there is any topic that should be blacklisted when it comes to art and literature. HOWEVER, it needs to be researched and written about carefully. I shouldn’t need to tell anybody that rape is a terrible thing to have happen. A lot of the time when I see rape, it’s used as an edge factor or for shock value. Characters that have been raped usually fall into 1 of 2 categories. Either the character’s whole story becomes about the aftermath of the rape, OR the character never acknowledges the assault again.

People who use rape in the backstory of their characters, (who lets face it are usually female, hmmm) are used to make the character look more sympathetic or give a reason for the hard outer shell. It’s a cheap, lazy way of making a character seem tragic while also trivializing the pain that sexual assault victims go through. Think about it this way: you are literally trying to explore something that ACTUAL VICTIMS would give anything to have not experienced. Why? Women [and men] have enough of a hard time dealing with this in the real world, but people want to exploit that pain because they think it’ll make their writing deep and mature. That’s fucked up.

What do you mean by fetishizing rape?

By going into graphic details about said rape. No one needs to see that shit. I don’t need graphic details about how someone is being raped or how what the rapist is thinking during the actual event. Do a scene fade to black or have it implied.

Someone kindly provided CCS with screens of a recent rape RP on dA where while the character was getting assaulted, the person writes “As soon as she felt his rod, she bucked harder, something that could be interpreted as her wanting it, when in fact she was trying her best to get away.” STOP. I’ve seen this language before in other RPs, where the character getting assaulted, where the female character is portrayed as maybe appearing to want it. NO ONE WANTS TO BE RAPED. NO ONE WHO IS GETTING RAPED APPEARS TO “WANT IT.” Why would you ever say something like that?!

Women who go public with their sexual assault are always dragged through the mud because maybe they “wanted it”  because they dressed or danced or looked a certain way. Saying “this could be interpreted as wanting it” is perpetrating rape culture that is harmful to everyone involved.

The sad thing is that above mentioned RP was written by 3 women. Good job shitting on your own team ladies.

But I’m an adult. Why can’t I write about it?

Just because you are an adult does not mean that you can or should write about rape. Being above the age of 18 does not automatically absolve you of all responsibility when writing about sensitive subjects.  Furthermore, when you post something in public, you need to be prepared for backlash when writing about something that is a touchy issue.

I also want to state that if you are writing about something like sexual assault and an actual victim tells you the way you are portraying it is offensive and triggering, please listen to them. Do you think you know more about it than someone who actually experienced it? By arguing with them and telling them they are wrong or overreacting, you are being dismissive and invalidating their experiences. You are part of the problem.

In conclusion:

Let’s do better guys. I really mean this. Everyone is better than this. There are so many topics to explore, including dark ones to write on besides rape and sexual assault. The possibilities are endless. It just takes a little bit of hard work and imagination.

And at the very least, if you must write gross, offensive, fetishizing rape stories, had least have the fucking common courtesy to keep them private.

I’m going to leave this article here, it expands further on some of these points: How Has Rape Become Such a Common Trope

[theonyxpath]

The Deviant: The Renegades Kickstarter launched last Thursday and we would have loved it to fund in 24 hours, but it was actually closer to 25. Possibly every backer was pranking us, but in the end it’s cool- we did fund, we’re gonna get this newest Chronicles of Darkness game into retail stores, and we’re moving into building additional books with the Stretch Goals!

So basically, the Deviant KS is doing great! Come join us!

Links for the Deviant: The Renegades and the Creature Collection for Scarred Lands 5e Kickstarters are below in the Blurbs! section.

We have had some folks, who I’m guessing have not backed any of our last few KSs, write to tell us that they’re taken aback by the listed international shipping costs. Yep, we are as miffed at those costs as you, and as I posted here a month or so back, we have chosen to go ahead and still ship internationally and post the costs, rather than stop shipping internationally as quite a few of our fellow TTRPG publishing have chosen for their KSs.

I figure it’s better to let prospective international backers know the cost upfront so they can make the informed choice that makes the most sense to them.

Usually when I explain this, I also let folks know that behind the scenes we have tried and are continuing to explore alternative shipping options. With Deviant‘s KS, we are still using our previous methodology, but with the concurrently running Creature Collection for Scarred Lands 5e Kickstarter (also doing nicely, thank you!) you can see one of the options we’re exploring.

In CC’s case, we’re working with Handiworks Games not just on the art and writing and design and Kickstarter for the book, but also with printers and fulfillment based in the EU. We’ll have a bunch of books sent over to the US for those backers, and then we hope that costs to ship from the EU for our international backers will be more reasonable.

Like I say, it’s an experiment that we think will work in a good way, but that’s never a guarantee in the rapidly shifting cost-structures of international shipping. And we’ll have to see if it is repeatable for other projects, too.

But enough about Kickstarter, let’s talk about me.

Well, pretty much about how I spent my weekend, but it will circle back around to general topics about our hobby.

Have you ever had one of those time-frames where it seems that everybody you haven’t been able to get together with all want to hang out at essentially the same time? Well, that’s what happened to me, and for a twenty-four hour period I had three get-togethers (one was virtual) with old gaming buddies.

The first was an invitation from two high-school friends for dinner on Friday night which of course turned into talking about how my one buddy Johnny, aka Shithead the Dwarf, and I first met during our first D&D games as sophomores in HS. That’s the gaming club where when we started, we had the first four little D&D booklets and were waiting for the fifth booklet, Blackmoor, to be released.

It just so happened that my English class (that’s what we called Language Arts then, kids) had assigned me a journal to write, and in it I chronicled those first D&D adventures, so even now through the mists of time I can read all about how we’d stir through piles of mud with 10′ poles, and get attacked by 11 Stirges, and lose our Cleric to being swallowed by a Giant Frog.

The first few months we played with our very first DM, Robert, but then he had to get ready to graduate, and both Johnny and I stepped up as DMs. Johnny continued to run and play games until he graduated, and I did same but returned to our HS to run games for a couple of years since my art college wasn’t that far away.

When Johnny came home for break, and later when he was on leave from the Navy, there was always a seat at our gaming table for him, and some of his “temp” characters lived on as famous NPCs. Which was easier because my setting, my D&D “world”, has been the same since I first stepped up to DM as a sophomore.

(I share all this about my friend both for context and because I’ve known this guy for over 40 freaking years and that amount of time boggles my mind.)

And we weren’t the only players who ran games too, most of our players did both – which makes me wonder what we could have done with Community Content sites for all of our many worlds? Getting into Dragon Magazine was some folk’s goals, but if we could have published our stuff? Wow!

Of course, we probably would have needed the internet to make it happen, and we were just getting desk-top computers at that time!

BTW I just listened to the recording of our “What’s Up With Onyx Path Community Content?” panel from Gen Con on the Onyx Pathcast from last Friday, so Community Content might be on my mind. It’s a good panel if you’re interested in exploring publishing your own material for our games, so check it out on Podbean or your favorite podcast venue.

Dark Eras 2 art by Alex Sheikman

Then, Saturday all day was board games with the old gaming crew from both HS and the college years: Elmer the Troll, Thock the four-armed well, Thock, D’Gr’Gr the Duergar, and Ish, the gender-neutral Deep Gnome jester.

Obviously, those are their character names (from one campaign I ran), but in real life they are old friends and we’ve tried to get together once a quarter to play games, or go to the movies, or whatever, and this was one of those occasions.

We played Terraforming Mars and Blackbeard, and had a fun time learning the former while grinding our teeth trying to figure out what the hell the rules were so desperately trying to say with Blackbeard. Granted, it was an old Avalon Hill game, but seriously, these things were contradictory in the same paragraph.

This is one of the reasons I take the errata phase of our Onyx Path games seriously – can the audience understand and implement your text in the way you intended when publishing it? It’s sometimes hard to tell until you get it in front of that audience, so that phase for us gives us that feedback.

Then Saturday night, after our guests left, I raced upstairs to join our ongoing D&D 5e game on Roll20. It had been quite a while since we could get our schedules to line up (and of course it had to be this self-same day), and we were shifting from Justin running it to Oscar. So big change, although they had decided to keep our current characters and storyline with Oscar stepping in to add to our ongoing saga, and Justin could join in as a player.

So I had to play if I could swing it timing-wise. Turns out I could, and did, and a good time was had by all. What’s really interesting is the contrast as I look at the playing experience Johnny and I were reminiscing about, and the one I had on Saturday night.

Still playing D&D (from 1e to 5e!), but there’s our group doing collaborative world building as DMs. Not done by me and my HS friends in those early days; everybody was more about presenting THEIR world, that melange of influences and tropes that they wanted everyone to play in. The chance to tell the stories they wanted to tell. In a way, it was very personal, and it was how we all expected was just how it was done.

I do think part of opening up how and why we create and run our settings is the ensuing decades of game design that have experimented with more innovative ways to play. Not all the avenues that have been explored have worked long-term, but the accumulation of trying different things has enriched our hobby overall.

And, of course, there’s the huge difference that we played on Roll20. We had players on the West Coast US and on the East Coast, and we’ve had players coming in from London, places in Canada, the EU, and Micronesia previously. Being able to pull your group together from all over the world is such a boon when I remember worrying if all of our group would make it just from all over Philadelphia for our weekly session.

What I’m saying with these comparisons, is it’s a great time to be a table-top RPGamer!

Final thing about me – I’m going to do Inktober again this year. That’s the challenge to do one drawing in ink every day for the entire month. Any kind of ink. Last year I depicted characters that were all from the MithraukoQuest storyline of my old game world. This time around I’ll be doing characters and creatures that are part of the world, and from different gaming groups’ adventures, that weren’t part of the years the players fought against Count Mithrauko – so look out for my drawrings on social media.

All this, all these years of playing, and the years of reading genre fiction and comic books, the years of TV and movies, of studying fine art and graphics, all go together so I can decide what games we’re publishing, and what seems like it’ll play well at the table, be characterful and immersive, will look really cool, and have visual hooks like page layout and symbols – all of it comes to together and powers up my ability to make sure you have:

Today’s Reason to Celebrate!

And so we now are in Autumn! Falling into fall! Let’s celebrate the season that starts today where things get really colorful and then die! (OK, nature is just sleeping…really.) And Saturday was, I hear, Batman Day, which works well, especially if you recall the first drive in the Batmobile to the Batcave in Tim Burton’s Batman with the low angle shot up the road with swirling dead autumn leaves in the car’s wake. Lovely, just like the season.

RPG Computer games The first computer role-playing games began in 1975 just as one offshoot of early university mainframe text-based RPGs on PDP-10 and Unix-based computers, starting with Dungeon and graphical RPGs around the PLATO system, pedit5 and dnd, games inspired by role-playing games. Other influences during this time period were text adventures, Multiple-User Dungeons (MUDs) and roguelike games. A few of the first graphical RPGs after pedit5 and dungeons and dragons, were orthanc, avathar (later renamed avatar), oubliette, dungeons of degorath, baradur, emprise, bnd, sorcery, moria, and dndworld, that were developed and became widely popular for the PLATO system during the latter 1970s, mostly because of PLATO's speed, fast graphics, nationwide network of terminals, and huge quantity of players with access to those terminals. These were as well as (but did not always lead straight away to) games on other platforms, including Akalabeth (1980) (which gave rise for the well-known Ultima series), and Wizardry.

The very first RPG Computer games offered just one player experience. The buzz of multiplayer modes during these games rose sharply in the mid-1990s. Diablo (1996) was one of the games that heavily influenced this boost in popularity. It combined RPG and action game elements, and featured an Internet multiplayer mode that allowed around four players to go in exactly the same world and fight monsters, trade items, or deal with each other. Massive Multiplayer Online RPGs (MMORPG) introduced huge worlds with open-ended gameplay and a huge number of interactive characters (both player and computer-controlled). In 1997, a fresh Internet fad began. Influenced by console RPGs, a big group of young programmers and aficionados began creating and sharing independent RPG Computer games, based mostly on the gameplay and elegance with the older SNES and Sega Genesis games. Virtually all such games owe to simplistic software development kits for example the Japanese RPG Maker series. A steadily increasing amount of non-RPG games have adopted aspects traditionally observed in RPGs, like experience point systems, equipment management, and choices in dialogue. The blending of these elements which has a various game engines and gameplay styles are creating many hybrid game categories. These hybrid games are generally formed by mixing popular gameplay elements featured in other genres, such as first-person shooters, platformers, and real-time strategy games.

Each car has been faithfully rendered with great pixel art, with a supreme attention to detail. There’s no denying that Pixel Car Racer is a good-looking game. Making the World of Pixel Car Racer Your Own

#Pixel car racer hack tool apk freeload upgrade

This could be new parts for your gearbox, a decoration for your garage, or a straight upgrade to your car. These crates are earned (slowly) through playing the game, while you can also use real money to buy crates and unlock goodies. You’ll need to unlock different crates to unlock new parts for your cars and to kit out your garage. LIke all good mobile games, Pixel Car Racer has gacha elements. Thanks to the active community online (on the likes of YouTube and other social media) there are lots of discoveries to be made and fun to be had. The two meat-and-bones of the game include the Drag and Street race modes, although the developers have promised many different limited-time events and other modes arriving shortly. No RPG car-driving experience would be fitting without plenty of different game modes to try.

#Pixel car racer hack tool apk freeload how to

Learning how to handle each car is part of the fun – some will require more grinding manual gear changes, whereas other automatic cars will handle that part for you.

#Pixel car racer hack tool apk freeload android

From an Audi R8 to an Aston Martin Vantage, the range of different vehicles is what makes this a great game for car lovers with an Android phone. There are literally hundreds of cars in Pixel Car Racer, all delicately recreated in pixelated graphics. Master the ways of Pixel Car Racer to get your hands on the goods! Sure, the levels start out simple enough, but over time you’ll be placed up against more challenging opponents. This is done by completing a range of different Drag and Street game modes, which include races and chases. That means you start out with a smaller, slower car, and it’s up to you to unlock faster vehicles. Pixel Car Racer is a racing game with some deep RPG elements. Plus, there’s a huge range of different cars available, from super-fast Audis to classic Aston Martins. There’s huge attention to detail, including the different ways you can spec out your car, the driving mechanics, and even the track and story design. Forget the cheesy graphics and boring game mechanics, Pixel Car Racer takes the genre to another level. The truth is, this is no ordinary Android racing game. Called a sandbox RPG experience, there is a lot more to this game than just racing – level up your driver, car, and build the garage of your dreams by racing to the top of the leaderboards. Taking retro-style pixel graphics of old and pairing them with modern gameplay mechanics, what you get is a fantastic and addictive racing game ideal for passing the time.

Kingdom Come Deliverance Review

Kingdom Come is a game with the sensibilities of old school CRPGs like Wasteland or classic Fallout with the graphics and presentation of newer RPGs such as Skyrim or the Witcher 3. Similar to early Fallout nearly everything you do matters. The level of detail in this game is sometimes jaw-dropping. Popular YouTuber Nerd3 stated that Kingdom Come is the game that Skyrim wanted to be. I agree with him but there are clear influences from games like Mount & Blade in there as well. From the Medieval European setting to the importance of class and social standing Kingdom Come proves it's more ambitious than a simple Skyrim clone. Sadly, however, all of this potential is crushed by bugs, glitches, game crashes and good old-fashioned prejudice.

You start your story in 15th century Bohemia which is now the modern day Czech Republic. You're a peasant called Henry, the son of a blacksmith. Of course, according to video game cliché, your hometown is burned down and your parents murdered in front of you. This is boring, overused and just lazy in terms of video game plots. Kingdom Come does improve after this weak opening. The story soon finds you getting taken in by Sir Radzig Kobyla and trained by his men. Unlike games like Skyrim, this story is rather linear. You can't change the outcome of events, being a simple blacksmith's son doesn't allow you the power to do so.

What you do have control over is how you complete the tasks set before you by your Lords and Ladies. If you are well spoken, dressed and clean then you can use your silver tongue to complete a lot of objectives. People will take you less seriously if you're covered in mud and/or blood or have tattered clothing. Visiting bathhouses or using a local trough will help keep you and your laundry clean. You can also stick to the shadows and creep around in the silence of night in order to knock-out and kill foes. Then there is good violence for when things go wrong. Bloody swords will scare most common folk but bandits and soldiers will fight back. This leads to the combat which is fun but clunky. When you make it past the learning curve this is an enjoyable system but it's not an easy one. The buggy and glitchy nature of the game makes the combat all the more cumbersome. While not a perfect system it does improve over the mindless flailing of Skyrim.

History is no excuse for prejudice and this is something Kingdom Come has a real issue with. Everyone is white and heterosexual. Their exists no cases of homosexuality which is inaccurate for the era. While the act of sex between two men was not allowed during this time, men were still most likely romantic with each other. King James I and IV of Scotland and England was one of history's most openly gay men and he was around during the medieval era. I will admit the extent of romantic relationships between men is up for debate but what isn't is homosexuality between women. It was perfectly okay for women to freely partake in both romantic and/or sexual relationships with each other. Due to the extreme sexism of the era sex was thought of as an act that was only possible with a man. This meant that women being romantic and/or sexual with each other was not even thought of as 'sex' back then and as such was common.

I say all this because Kingdom Come makes a point to be as historicity accurate as possible. But only with certain points. The creators didn't look into this part of the history or the fact that although people of colour would have been rare they would not have been unseen. Humans have always moved around the globe and as such there have always been mixed populations. Yes there would have been prejudice but that doesn't mean no people of colour as we see in this game. While maybe only around 1% of the population of Bohemia would have been non-white that is still part of the population that this game ignores. Kingdom Come uses inaccurate historical realism as an excuse to exclude people of colour and the LGBT community. Yet they ignore the historical fact that everyone would have been speaking Czech or Latin but instead speak English in the game. There is not even an option to have the characters speak in their correct tongue with English subtitles.  This shows who they were willing to bend the 'historical realism' for. As normal in the gaming community it's English speaking white men.

What Kingdom Come is really good at though is it's world building and immersion. This is a world that feels steeped in details and history. NPC's will hide under cover from the rain. Villagers will gather at the local tavern in the evenings. People will get undressed before they get into bed as well as talk to each other and generally go about their lives. If you are told something is urgent then people won't wait around for you. Unlike most games, you are not the centre of this world and that feels great. All of these details and changes from existing gaming traditions help create a beautifully immersive world. That makes it all the more off-putting when you fall through the floor or see textures, outfits and entire buildings pop in a few meters in front of you. It's not uncommon to get stuck on a flight of stairs, shallow river or bush. I've had the floor swallow me up and grassy hills throw me into the air as well as walls and guards allowing me to phase through them. To say this game is a bit buggy is an understatement. Outside of all of the other issues I have with this game, as well as all the stuff I love about it the thing that kills it is these bugs and crashes. I got 18 hours into the game and now it won't load after a conversation with a captive bandit I was questioning. That's it, 18 hours and I can't get any further in. I could restart but I don't want to have to replay almost an entire days worth of content to get back where I was and maybe have the same problem.

Kingdom Come is an ambitious game and one that can be a lot of fun at times but with a few big issues. Ignoring people of colour and the LGBT community from the history it tries so hard to teach players about is horrid. The bugs are off-putting at best and game breaking at worst. I very well might return to this game in a year or so and re-review it because by then the bugs may be fixed. As it stands now in 2018, however, it's a mostly broken mess.

Recommendation Rating: 3 out of 10.

Role Playing Games

A role-playing game (RPG) is a genre of video game where the gamer controls a fictional character (or characters) that undertakes a quest in an imaginary world. Players take responsibility for acting out these roles within a narrative, either through literal acting or through a process of structured decision-making regarding character development. Actions taken within many games succeed or fail according to a formal system of rules and guidelines.

There are several varieties of RPGs that exist in electronic media, such as multiplayer text-based Multi-User Dungeons (MUDs) and their graphics-based successors, massively multiplayer online role-playing games (MMORPGs). Role-playing games also include single-player role-playing video games in which players control a character, or team of characters, who undertakes quests and may include player capabilities that advance using statistical mechanics. These electronic games sometimes share settings and rules with tabletop RPGs, but emphasise character advancement more than collaborative storytelling.

It is true that the fans, players, programmers, video game writers, and designers, among others, contribute to the overall success of the RPG game industry. However, many often overlook the vital role intellectual property laws play in keeping the industry alive, thriving, and, most importantly, profitable. Without legal protection, RPG games would probably not have evolved into the multi-faceted, technical, and creative masterpieces we know them to be today, with each RPG game composed of a source code layered with audiovisual effects, artistic character and environmental design, musical scores, storylines, and unique gameplay, to name a few.

A copyright protects literary and artistic works from the moment of their creation. As applied to RPG games, copyright covers the source codes or software, character and environmental design, music, dialogue, and story. This means that these aspects of the game cannot be copied without first obtaining the consent of their creators; otherwise, the imitators may be liable for copyright infringement, entailing the payment of damages. Other remedies, such as an injunction, may also be obtained.

Types of Intellectual Property in RPG

Copyrights

Why they exist: "To promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts, by securing for limited times to Authors and Inventors the exclusive right to their respective writings and discoveries" (U.S. Const., Art. I, ¶ 8). The basic idea was to provide a short-term but relevant amount of time for creators to exercise control over their work so that they’d produce the work at all.

What they cover/protect: the expression of an idea.

What they don’t cover/protect: ideas, methods, systems of operation, independently existing facts, and more. Game mechanics are not subject to copyright – they are methods or systems of operation which should therefore be patented.

How that coverage arises: by placing that expression in a fixed medium (paper, computer file, etc.).

How long that coverage lasts: for individual creators, the life of the author, plus 70 years.

What’s free for the taking: Content not subject to copyright and content where the copyright has expired or otherwise fallen into the public domain.

Trademarks

Why do they exist? To prevent consumer confusion by identifying the source of a product or service.

What they cover/protect is a word, picture, colour, scent, or design meant to convey the source of a good or service; or, when licensed, the approval of the source of the good or service.

What they don’t cover/protect: The products themselves. A trademark is designed to convey who produced a product, but it provides no protection for the product itself. A trademark means that you know that your D&D adventure was created by the folks who make D&D rather than a third-party author.

How that coverage arises: Use in commerce followed by registration.

How long that coverage lasts: Indefinitely, as long as the mark is used in commerce continuously and the trademark holder continues to rejig their mark.

What’s free for the taking: Because the trademark only indicates the source, the underlying product itself is unprotected.

Patents 

Why they exist: "To promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts, by securing for limited Times to Authors and Inventors the exclusive Right to their respective Writings and Discoveries" (U.S. Const., Art. I, ¶ 8). The basic idea was to provide a short-term but relevant amount of time for inventors to exercise exclusive control over their inventions in exchange for making their methods public. If it seems like this is repeating copyright, it is. By design, they are both constitutional commands to Congress.

What they cover/protect: inventions that are useful, do something new, advance their field in a non-obvious way, in a method that can be described and is technically feasible.

What they cover/protect: inventions that are useful, do something new, advance their field in a non-obvious way, in a method that can be described and is technically feasible.

How that coverage arises: Registration

How long that coverage lasts: Up to 20 years, with re-registration required along the way.

What they don’t cover/protect: The result of what the patent does. A patent protects a process, not a result. The now expired patent on tapping ‘Magic cards’ stopped other card game designers from indicating a card was used or otherwise unavailable by turning it 90 degrees. But, nothing prevented other game designers from indicating that a card was used by placing a token on them, turning them upside down, etc.

What you can’t protect

Now that we have a (very) basic idea of the types of IP, let’s talk about what they don’t protect in the gaming world, game mechanics and public domain content.

Game Mechanics

Game mechanics are generally accepted as not being protectable IP. There are two main reasons for this. They fall into a legal hole in the space between copyright law and patent law. For at least two reasons, copyright law doesn’t cover methods, systems, procedures, etc. First of all, this is the arena of patent law. Secondly, copyright protects the expression of an idea, not the idea itself.

Public Domain Content

The public domain covers material that either was never subject to IP protection (think Beowulf for copyright or the pulley for patents) or where that protection has lapsed for some reason. Material that’s fallen into the public domain is free for the taking. For the most part, this covers copyrighted works published before 1923 in the United States. Copyrighted works published from 1923-1978 are a minefield and to understand their status requires a hire of an attorney. Works published after 1978 are almost certainly protected (even if not registered), which makes the database of registered copyrights something of a false negative. You can find out something is protected, but have no clear way to identify if it isn’t. Trademarks and patents are a little bit easier – they are based on registration status and there are online, searchable engines for both. Patents expire after 20 years, and trademarks expire upon abandonment.

A Brief History of Online Games

Electronic gaming has advanced decisively as of late. As information data transfer capacity, handling power and screen goals consistently increment; engineers are keeping speed to give more sensible and vivid Internet amusement encounters. It is difficult to envision a world without the abundance of web based games that the present web surfers have generally expected, yet the historical backdrop of web based dp boss gaming returns a long time before the standard reception of the Internet.

The primary games to be played over PC networks were created in the mid 1970s. These were based on multi-client townhouse terminals at colleges. The last option a piece of that decade saw the appearance of multi-client prisons (MUD,) which later developed into multi-access prisons (MAD) and enormous multiplayer online pretending games (MMORPG.)

In 1985, the game Islands of Kesmai was delivered for clients of the business CompuServe PC organization. With illustrations comprised of ASCII text characters, this multi-player RPG looked similar to the rounds of today; however in numerous ways, it was a forerunner to the advanced MMORPG. The dream pretending clashes of this game were among the earliest precursors of the present internet battling games.

Later during the 1980s, the primary games were created which utilized the Internet Protocol (IP) to impart. In 1991, the game Neverwinter Nights was delivered for AOL endorsers. This is broadly hailed as the principal 3D graphical MMORPG. As the Internet filled in prominence among the overall population, the 1990s saw a blast of pretending, shooter, procedure and web based battling games with multiplayer abilities. Probably the most eminent are Doom, Warcraft and Quake.

Constantly 2000, most business game programming bundles included the capacity to play online against different players. Albeit a significant number of the most famous web based games were intended for multiplayer activity, designers rushed to exploit Internet innovations, for example, Flash and JavaScript to make single-player games too.

The year 2002 saw the send off of gaming organizations like XBox Live and Steam. As informal organizations filled in prominence consistently, organizations, for example, Zynga got on board with that fleeting trend to make easygoing games that clients could play against their companions. Today, the choices for internet gaming range from business programming bundles, to interpersonal organization gaming, to program based games and, surprisingly, portable applications.

Hippoglyph (text based client)

A platform for text based gaming. Language can be pretty amazing to emerse yourself in. You can't have the same experience with a movie that you can with a book, and interactive imagination is state-of-the-art. An RPG physics engine that includes a nexus for entering and exiting worlds, with deeper game mechanic of time stamping world states to utilize an object structure of individualized randomseed, and creates a time travel mechanic that lends well to the ecosystem of a heartbeat driven mud. Preforming with intervention localized to have butterfly effects. An editor mode uses glyphs to build maps and link exits, with basic logic programming and a standard of functions in order to make compatible worlds. Playing the game you'll have the opportunity to explore an unlimited universe of creative content while progressing with the same character. Trying to retain a universal core of simulation and rogue-like reward. Characters are based loosely in mythology and science fiction, or world included custom entry and story modes. Client has 60 unlockable races and a spectral fragment system you generate with retired characters. Overall a story and world client for inspiring dream-like adventures. A simplified environment graphic or siluette shows an area type, the day sky, weather, and star generated night. Flickers the foreground with fire, the background with lightning, and shakes with the earth. Food enables hp healing, coffee can heal extra mp and stacks disabling mp healing. Mittons in Brass, I don't know. YingYang Marbles quest gets out of hand, like aggression maybe being feminant.

Avatar (modular rogue-like experiment)

A pixilated 2.5D raycaster first person rpg heavy on retro fantasy, with an experimental rogue-like dimension portal and modular world loading design. Levels are randomly selected to compile effects on your persistant character and objectives while retaining the ability to back track. Alternatively focused on a universe like Marathon, with text based interactive AI terminals and prehistoric planet survival. Regardless, has a 2.5D retro simulator for space travel also. Right now the basic raycasting fakes an illusion of vertical depth (strobe might work), and is missing transparant faces to round out the block style map design, allowing levels to be made easy. Could enable a map editor or procedual generated content. The original idea being a chaotic explorer of seemingly endless prehistoric universe dimension fantasy. It might also include a blind portal system. Never knowing where one might lead or what might come out, similar to the Palladium Rifts game with epic mysticism or magic revolving around it.

Deep Zone (Guardian Legend, prequel)

Miria returns to her homeworld to find humanity destroyed, greeted in space by a malfunctioning planet defense system which has neutralized the surface, and then within the fortress by a warning message left for her. Uniting had allowed evils to usurp domination, having faith in technology and opening rifts to dimensions beyond reality. Miria is a military version of the companion bot. She can transform, fly, grow giant, and otherwise pilot specialized mechs, aquiering new technology throughout the game.

I will destroy the world to end my suffering, and nothing can escape the power of my revenge. Embrace the wrath you have earned for neglecting the importance of my existence, you miserable, selfish children!" The gynoids become guardians of knowledge in catastrophy the universe has fundamentally. Evolution of technology breaking an ecosystem, themes of universal apocalypse, adult anime, and technology having a way of creating straight lines that drive an anologue reality insane. 4bit collision maps generated by overlaying space with a digable mask, background climbing or water and a solid tilemap.

Automa (Guardian Legend, sequel)

A heavily mechanized coalition and militarized society of giant pyramid-like city structures, drug infested with every aspect of life controlled in some way, symptom upon symptom. Zephyr, a gynoid-like transferable intelligence who cannot cope with her violent programs becomes defective. Haunted by old routines she periodically becomes mindless and berserk. Gigantic titans of ancient technology are destroying resources like runaway trains with incompatible communication, civilization too busy with complex programming and distraction to even notice or have any effect. Miria comes to this world and meets Zephyr. Together they explore an approaching catastrophe. Switch between Zephyr, who can transfer into mechs, or the sub-systems of buildings, and Miria who can pilot mechs, transform with alien technology, fly or grow giant. Much of the game is avoiding the militarized police controlled by the ancient technology, with expansive terrain maps between cities where they can use flight modes and encounter automations. Abandoned relics such as a bottomless cement waterfall of bowling pins, lifelessly loud, seem to forshadow an artificial insanity. Miria and Zephyr are registered as defective and destroyed in the end. The original programming wanting survival is unstoppable and continues to negate evolution for permanance. Unavoidable dark ending with hidden alternate of escape. Technology in control, going insane, anything that can happen will, miscommunication metaphor and theme about the absolute nature of words, fitting yet neglect a whole story and in turn can make things fit into completely wrong ideas. A spin city, brainwashed by its own slander. Example of audio dialed up digitally. Too much of a good thing, and our minds being products of experience, warpped by supernatural editing and that artificial sturggle to be yourself.

Omicron (multiplayer adventure)

Clusters multiply size changing circles connected by rubber bands endlessly to fill areas and create giantoids that collapse to a black hole. Maybe themes of escalating into an addiction of digging deeper, seed of madness, combine victory and feeling of loss, the same thing expecting novelty, triggering doomsday surface detonator to break apart and explode the planet completely. Dodo have a teleport pocket, and with one on their back a wolfcat can hug them for that effect, disappearing to an asteroid game-like movement, also loading near areas at random. Respawning environment and random loot. Unique and key items are passed around, hunted for and fought over.

If you take over the world you win but without a good ending since you've destroyed everything else. The goal is to venture underground and defeat the demonlord or something. Theme of technology taking over space like an ocean, to render resources of planets and become entropic with no other place to go. Planets are fortraces and abyssal is grounding. Ships have pilot slots and need at least one main but can cycle explore. If main dies ship is salvage, or it goes insane. If ship dies you start a new pilot and retrofit ship clone.

Muddy Apples (level based)

Based on the Appleseed manga, shadowgate varied between top down landscape puzzles of combat. Deunan, Hairy, Zelda and Klaus, military heroes, discover too late a plot to rewrite history and instigate war. While attempting to remedy the conflict they're framed as traitors and forced to retreat to an enemy prison. Another plot to release super bacteria unfolds, as well as a threat of nuclear doomsday. Themes of information war and the anticipation of weapons, such as having a gun around causing desire to see it go off, or drama in movies wanting reality to become dramatic. The modified bacteria plague escalates, and within the oceans begin mutating massive dinosaurs that come onto land and continue to mutate. The military tries to suppress a pandemonium of insatiable reptiles, while holding off an apocalypse of nuclear chain-phase technology that would render the planet devoid of life for eternity. The story ends with the group living like cavemen, unlikely to survive, launching a time capsule of bacteria into decaying orbit to survive the chain-phase explosions. Alternate ends in these scenarios. Lots of war torn, abandoned, modern cities to traverse carefully, favouring night. Use of technology including power suits. Fight storng dinosaurs which are individually relentless, then weaponised into missile-clad cyborg. Find points of safety, such as well protected buildings and attempt to reach a military base in the moutains. Mix of shadowgate with top down tactical simulator games with metal gear and mass effect like mechanics. Alternatively the top down landscape could be side view like Omega Warrior but jumping isn't an input, and interacting with landscape has tactical realism. Simple shmup game included, similar theme and accessed in game. Fight your way to defeat the boss ships that control the swarms, discovering bizarre and fantastic opponents. Enter deep space to locate the floodbringer homeworld and try to remedy the infection at its source.
